NXT Preview

WWE has 3 advertised matches for tonight’s show.

Ryan’s Take

  • It’s nice to see Swerve and Ruff get a featured match on this show. I assume both will be motivated to use the freedom of a Falls Count Anywhere match to really show what they can do.
  • The GYV and Ciampa/Thatcher storyline has my interest. It could be a terrific match, but I wonder if Imperium still has eyes for Thatcher.
  • Balor, Cole, O’Reilly, Kross. I’m wondering what’s next for each of these guys.

Quick Preview

  • Ember Moon and Shotzi Blackheart v. Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell – Street Fight for Tag Team Championships
  • Isaiah Swerve Scott v. Leon Ruff – Falls Count Anywhere
  • Finn Balor Returns
  • Grizzled Young Veterans v. Tommaso Ciampa and Timothy Thatcher
